Hi folks. Sorry this is somewhat late. We have had a few days away in Gay Paree! Not all play, I might add. My husband had to go there for work purposes. Still, we did manage a bit of a look around. The best bit was going up the Eiffel Tower. The worst bit was that it was foggy and bitterly cold!

Still, now we are back, and trying desperately to play “catch-up”, with Christmas just around the corner.

Without more ado, here is the last list of new Beanies for this year;-
ALWAYS the bear
COUNTDOWN the New Year bear (3 versions)
GREETINGS the duck (December 2004 Beanie of the month)
HAWAII the bear (Hawaii state exclusive)
HONEY-BUN the dog
LOVEY-DOVEY the dog
P.F.C the bear (U.K exclusive)
POET the monkey
SNIPS the bear
STARLIGHT the bear (Harrods U.K exclusive-white)
STARLIGHT the bear (Harrods U.K exclusive-black)
SUGAR-PIE the dog
SUNDAR the snow leopard
TINY TIM the mouse
TRULY the bear

Two new Buddie Bears;-
CLUBBY VI
HEARTFORD

Also two more Jingle Beanies;-
CORNBREAD the bear (Cracker Barrel exclusive)
HERSCHEL the bear (Cracker Barrel exclusive)

All that remains for me to do now is to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year! See you all in 2005! Take care.

Lots of love from xx
